| INSTRUCTIONS FOR AUTHORS It is important that authors follow these instructions before preparing a manuscript and submitting to IEJME. The manuscripts should be prepared in Microsoft Word and submitted via the online submission system, http://www.iejme.com/form/index.htm. The authors first need to register in the system and then submit their articles. If the authors have more than one file to submit, they should first compress those files into one single file (e.g., *.zip, *.rar), and then submit that single file to the system. Submissions must be in English based on the style outlined by American Psychological Association (6th edition). Documents that are not in compliance with the Journal’s submission criteria will be returned to the sender for corrections. Each manuscript should have the following items placed in the order given: Please do not include cover page since you will enter author information in the online submission system. All manuscript should be blinded. The first page should include the title (mostly 12 words) at the top of the page and centered. Below the title, include an abstract of up to 200 words and identify 3-5 keywords. Then the body of the text should follow. The full references should be listed in alphabetical order at the end of the main text and should be aligned with the criteria set by American Psychological Association (APA) (6th Edition). Manuscripts should not exceed 30 double-spaced pages in length. They should be prepared on (A4) pages with margins of 2.5cm (1 inch) from each side. Please do not include any author information in the main body of the text. Tables and figures should be aligned with APA 6 style and should be included within the main text with the appropriate number and headings. Tables should be double-spaced and should not include any inside/outside borders. Sources of information and table notes should be given under the table and should be double-spaced. Author(s) should write for an international audience. When the article is accepted, author(s) will be asked to provide a final version of the article formatted in Windows MS Word based on the journal publication guidelines.Click here to download a template article to work on.
